Q: I cannot find my iPhone videos anywhere in the OS X Photos app.

The photos all seem to load just fine, but videos are nowhere to be found.

 

I have an iPhone 4 and a new 2015 Macbook Pro.

MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch,Early 2015), OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)

    How are you transferring the videos from the iPhone to your Mac?

     

    My Photo Stream only transfers the photos, but not the videos.  To transfer your videos as well, connect the iPhone to a USB port and download them  using the Import panel in Photos.

     

    The videos should appear in the Videos album in the sidebar. To reveal the sidebar with the albums press the key combination ⌥ ⌘S.
